Tone Your Arms with Ultrasonic Lipo
Liposuction has been in use for several decades. While this procedure used to be moderately to significantly invasive, it is now safer, faster, and more accurate in removing unwanted body fat than ever. Doctors also now use unprecedented technology to make the fat removal process simpler. Discover if ultrasonic lipo is right for you by learning what it is and how it is carried out.
What is Ultrasonic Lipo?
Ultrasonic lipo is a treatment that utilizes high pitch sound waves to transform fat cells into liquid within your own body. Our doctor will identify what areas of the body need to be treated and what deposits of fat should be removed. Once those areas are identified, he will use the sound waves to transform your fat into liquid, which can then be easily removed from your body.
This type of liposuction is used most often on hard-to-treat areas like the:
⢠Neck
⢠Chin
⢠Ankles
⢠Cheeks
⢠Ankles
⢠Calves
It is also used along with other types of procedures like tumescent liposuction for patients who would benefit from expect body contouring that is more precise and well-defined.
How is Ultrasonic Lipo Done?
Ultrasonic liposuction is done as an outpatient procedure in the comfort of our office in Scottsdale. It involves the injection of a solution called tumescent fluid. This fluid consists of an anesthetic, epinephrine, and a salt water solution. It prevents the excess loss of fluids like blood during the procedure. It also minimizes complications like bleeding, as well as firms the treated area to make the liquefaction and removal of fat easier.
The Many Benefits of Ultrasonic Liposuction
This procedure offers numerous advantages that make it appealing to cosmetic surgeons and patients alike. Some of the key benefits include:
⢠The ability to treat large areas in a single procedure
⢠Larger capacity for the removal of fat
⢠The ability to be used in conjunction with other cosmetic procedures
⢠Faster recovery period
